The star’s Savage X Fenty range is stealing the market from Victoria’s Secret
Flesh rolls, stretch marks and dimpled thighs aren’t a traditional mainstay of
New York fashion week, nor are lingerie shows ever deemed to have a finger on the pulse. But if the hype around Rihanna’s new collection is anything to go by, the industry is bracing itself for a wobble.
This Tuesday the star, named the world’s richest female musician by Forbes, will be mounting her second Savage X Fenty show at an as-yet-to-be-disclosed Brooklyn venue. As per her debut last year, which was celebrated as a game-changing “festival of flesh of all skin tones” by
Vogue, the spectacle is expected to be diverse, inclusive and attended by fashion and celebrity A-listers.
